I'm standing with the President of Riba, (Royal Institute of British Architects) Chris Williamson, who has decided not to renew his membership with the Architects Registration Board (ARB). So I will NOT be using the title of "Architect" this year!
"The ineffectiveness of the current regulatory system for UK architects, which only protects the legally restricted title ‘architect’ and provides no oversight of the competence of those who undertake architectural services or activities.
It therefore allows anybody to carry out the work of an architect, as long as they don’t call themselves one."
